CS 08/09 gathering

Today started off at 1pm when i woke up. It is the 15th of the lunar month. Most of the chinese are preparing the offerings for the gods and ancestors. Yep, i am no different... i had to help out my mum to set up the offerings the whole afternoon. Time goes fast and it is 5plus.

I am late for the outing which is suppose to be at 3. It is at simei, at gina house. seriously dam far, had to transfer bus after reaching simei station. I took a short cut and took 969 to tampines first. What's beautiful for this trip is the rainbow that was formed on my trip there. It is the first rainbow that i had seen since secondary school. The rainbow appeared for around 15mins of my journey before it is covered by the dark clouds. Just for everyone's knowledge, rainbow is actually not a semi-circle but a full circle... just that we are unable to see the full circle when we are on the ground.

Anyway, back to the topic, i reached gina house ard 40 mins. The attendance is not that great and we have wei chuan joining us too. I missed out the fun part of buying and preparing of the food items. sobs. But just nice for the start of steamboat. Initially, the soup is not bad but they added tom yum stock into it which i disliked the taste. We eat until super full before having some grapes, tea and indulgence of those sinful chocolates.

We explored Gina's " shuai ge" baby photos and her parents' collections of trophies, pagers, handphones and badges. We even got to know that her mum worked as a macdonald staff and even served in the army before with a rank of sergeant. Cool. Went home with C.c with some thoughts discussed with him..
